No one here will sleep tonight. Get your rest now. We’ll get through this alive, but please remember to help your neighbors.

Im looking at the 16:00 hours posting.
It looks to me that Hurricane Rick is now projected to land north of Lázaro Cárdenas, sparing the Zihuatanejo area from a “direct hit”.

I just saw that also. Looks like we are right on the edge but it might miss us by a hair.

We're not missing anything. We're in the lower right quadrant of the part of the storm that will have hurricane force winds coming directly off the ocean. Don't fool yourself. Be ready and stay strong and you'll be fine.

And so far, we are under an inch of rain since midnight (2.4cm) and the wind hasn't started. Yet.
We are set for one hell of a ride, and hope it doesn't happen, but are set up for it as best as we can be!

Since the Hurricane spins counter clockwise, we are on worst side. Heavy winds and storm surges will be the highest on our side. Prepare now. Get out the candles.
